Picked up the new truck today.
We left the dealer in Greeley, Co at noon and drove 409 miles today. We are 3 miles short of Utah. Talk about long legs this thing really strenches them out. Fuel fill is not as good as the old 2001. ...

Absolutely beautiful truck; enjoy! I love the color combo.
That is a really good price for the extended warranty. I can't remember the exact number but my dealer wanted much more than that so I declined it. I'm really not worried about the powertrain (which has good factory warranty coverage anyway) but I question the reliability of the electronic gadgets in it. My satellite radio has locked up a couple of times which will get reported when it goes in for the upcoming recalls.
I agree with your comment on the fuel filler. It seems abnormally high and a bit awkward to get the nozzle in and out; I think it is worse on my truck given that it is a short box dually because the filler door is right in the dually fender. I have gotten somewhat used to it now, though. I still don't know why there is no filler cap.
Enjoy the rest of your journey home and have a safe trip.
